Rewilding: Letting Nature Take Over

After decades of intensive farming, plowing and chemical applications, the land surrounding Knepp Castle, about an hour outside of London, was depleted. Then, the owners decided on a new approach: rewilding, allowing the over 3,500 acres of land to return to its natural state. Correspondent David Pogue pays a visit to see how, in a short span of time, this land has now become one of the most important biodiversity hotspots in the United Kingdom, home to an incredible variety of plants, animals, birds, and insects, many of them endangered.

Help Support Land Preservation

Comal Land Conservation Fund
Comal County is rapidly losing large tracts of open land to development, putting stress on our natural resources. To help make land preservation an affordable option for landowners, CCCA created the Comal Land Conservation Fund (CLCF) to provide funds for projects dedicated to preserving open space in Comal County. Among the projects eligible for CLCF funding is a landowner’s effort to establish a conservation easement through a contract with a Land Trust entity. Conservation easements allow landowners to retain ownership and use of their land while agreeing to keep the land in its existing state. These easements will protect the land in perpetuity and provide open spaces that benefit the entire county. 
 
Help make preservation of our beautiful natural areas and precious natural resources a reality in Comal County before it's too late.
